Hull City have taken German goalkeeper Dennis Eilhoff of relegation-threatened Bundesliga 2 outfit Arminia Bielefeld on trial, according to reports. The Bielefeld-based Westfalenblatt newspaper claims that the Championship club will give the 28-year-old the chance to earn a contract over the next couple of days. Eilhoff will be a free agent in the summer and Hull have taken the first step towards a potential deal at the end of the season. Any thoughts, does this mean we may not get Mannone come the end of season. Looks like something is going on anyway !! UTT CTID !!
I reckon if we do sign him he'll be a Duke replacement not a Mannone one - he'll be backup, he might not be bad but he can't be top class if he's playing for a bundesliga 2 relegation battler. Mannone, Eilhoff and Oxley next season? Yes please.
I'm still not sure we've got much of a chance on mannone. Not to say I think this guy would be first choice. Guzan would remain more likely I'd have thought

Good option?
managed to meet him tonight staying at his hotel, he has the same agent as Tijani belaid does, lets hope he becomes a bit more involved either this season or next!
His eyes are too slanty for my liking. If he starts shouting 'Herro' at his team-mates I'd start to question if he weren't from Beijing. Hmm...
